Reviewing bodies have shown that a high percentage of SHS students tend to underperform in mathematics examinations. In that respect, we examined the influence of two teaching approaches on Ghanaian public Senior High School students' mathematical mindsets. A quantitative research design was used, that is, an ex post facto research design was used…

This study explores the contribution of serious game teaching technology, such as FLIGBY, to the development of entrepreneurial learning outcomes in the context of an entrepreneurship course in higher education. The sample is composed of 551 students through the construction of a randomized pretest-posttest control group. A quantitative…

This qualitative study explores middle school students' perceptions of effective online learning pedagogies. I draw on eight semi-structured interviews with two students, 12 interviews with teacher participants, ongoing, open-ended ethnographic interviews with students and teachers, student artifacts, and field notes from over 300 h of synchronous…

This study explores the potential of Problem-Based Learning (PBL) in primary school education and investigates its impact on geography skills, learning achievement, and satisfaction. The purpose of the study is to assess the effectiveness of PBL as a student-centered approach in enhancing learning outcomes. The participants consisted of 43 grade 5…

This research focuses on Generation Z (Gen Z) students, specifically those in nursing colleges. Gen Z individuals display unique characteristics in terms of thinking, personality, lifestyle, and learning preferences compared to preceding generations, necessitating adaptations in teaching methodologies within nursing schools. This study explores…

The scientific literature reveals the impact of applying game-based videos and gamification on undergraduates' learning. This work proposes, within an online context, using these educational strategies to make students the active protagonists of their learning. Therefore, this paper aims to analyze the students' perception of the effectiveness of…

The purpose of this study was to assess the relative effectiveness of cooperative learning (CL) strategies on learners' peer relatedness, academic support (AS), and learning gains in Biology. A quasi-experimental non-equivalent group pre-test post-test design was employed, involving a sample of 81 students. Both quantitative and qualitative data…

Flipped classroom in pharmacy education has been widely explored with a major focus on its effectiveness but little emphasis is given to assess the different in-class activities. Therefore, this work compares two in-class activities in an overall flipped classroom: analogical learning and team-based learning (TBL) for a pharmacy course. The…

This paper outlines the rationale for, and some elements of, a particular approach to teaching and learning mathematics in the early years. The researchers worked with two school systems to offer both centrally delivered and school-based teacher professional learning, which included the application of illustrative teaching resources. The project…

Learner-centered approaches have been found to be effective in online courses for encouraging a deep understanding of course content and for encouraging student engagement. Instructors of two information systems courses revised their online teaching methods to incorporate student choice in assignments. All assignments except a weekly quiz were…

In recent years, higher education institutions have emphasized pedagogical practices that increase student engagement and are said to be effective. However, most of the research on 'effective' practices often do not make the distinction between what students like--or what they find "engaging"--and what practices they feel they learn…

Namibian Higher Education Institutions offer education at the levels of certificate, diploma, undergraduate degree and some other post graduate levels and each typically pursues different levels of capacity in skill and knowledge development for their graduates. However, systematic investigations of students' conceptions of good teaching are…
